Leave a legacy
Remembering King’s in your will is one of the most personal and significant ways you can support us.
While some in our school community find themselves able to support the school during their lifetime, others choose to make a commitment by remembering King’s in their will.
We hope that you feel your time here in Wimbledon had a positive influence on your life, or on the life of someone close to you. By leaving a legacy to support King’s or the King’s College School Bursaries Foundation, you would help us in our mission to provide excellence for all through supporting our bursary fund.
Your bequest will enable talented children from across London and Surrey - no matter their background - to make the most of the opportunities that an education here provides.
We have two ways in which you might like to remember King’s, through leaving a gift in your will or leaving a gift through your pension, more details are below.
As a way of honouring your legacy intentions, we would be delighted for you to join our Tertium Saeculum Society, supporting the school’s ambitions as we move into our third century, more details are below:
By joining the Tertium Saeculum Society, you will be invited to a society lunch every
other year with the Head as well as other receptions throughout the year.
The 5% Promise brings together those who believe that education has the power to transform lives. By pledging 5% or more of your pension to the King’s College School Bursaries Foundation, you can help to create a King’s for our third century, opening our doors wider, investing in potential, and ensuring that exceptional young people can thrive regardless of their financial means.
If you are considering supporting King's through a legacy gift, many donors choose to leave a percentage of their pension fund to bursaries, allowing them to support their family first while also creating a legacy through their pension.
If you would like more information please email development@kcs.org.uk
One of the simplest ways to make a impact through your estate is to nominate King's College School Bursaries Foundation as a beneficiary of your pension. Pension funds can often be passed on outside your estate and may offer tax advantages, making them a highly effective way to support the causes you care about.
If you have a defined contribution pension (such as a SIPP, personal pension, or most modern workplace pensions), you can usually nominate a charity to receive all or a specified percentage of your remaining pension fund when you die. This is done through your pension provider's beneficiary nomination or expression of wishes form.
If you would like to discuss this with us, please contact Antony Berry in the Development Office, who would be glad to help: A.berry@kcs.org.uk
We would recommend encouraging supporters to seek independent financial advice before making arrangements.
